Purpose

The purpose of this year's video interview is to allow scholars to express their interest in one of the career industries being taught this summer. In the Young Professionals Program, scholars are preparing for advocating for their future by taking steps that will lead into possible career opportunities. Video interviews offer several benefits in the career preparation process. They provide scholars with the opportunity to showcase their communication skills and express their interest in specific career industries. Additionally, video interviews allow scholars to gain experience in presenting themselves professionally and adapting to new technologies, which are crucial skills in today's job market.

In order to place scholars in the appropriate industry for the summer, professors will review each video and career assessment. Professors will assess the videos based on scholars' ability to effectively communicate their interest in a specific career industry, as well as their professionalism and adaptability to new technologies. They will also consider scholars' level of preparation and understanding of the career industry they are expressing interest in.
